Hello! I'm Emma from mmmEnglish and in this lesson, I'm going to share with you 10 English words that you're probably mispronouncing! If you are learning to speak English, then pronunciation is probably one of the biggest frustrations that you have right now and these words that I've chosen are difficult because of the combination of letters or sounds in English.

Together they can be quite difficult or your eyes can, in fact, play tricks on you because the letters that you see, they don't sound like you think they should and some of these words are even difficult for native English speakers to pronounce! But don't worry about it, don't sweat, we are going to fix these pronunciation problems right here, right now in this lesson!

Let's get started! Okay, the first word is 'vegetable', 'vegetable'.

Now this word is a challenge because it looks like there should be four syllables in this word. 'Vegetable'. But there's not, there are three syllables, 'vegetable'.

Can you see the syllable - that we completely forget the 'e'? 'Vegetable'. We don't pronounce that second syllable. 'Vegetable', 'vegetable'.

Fantastic! I'm going to the market to get some vegetables for dinner.

'Comfortable'. Now this word, just like 'vegetable', has an extra vowel in there that we don't need to pronounce. 'Comfortable', not 'comfortable' or 'comfortable' but 'comfort- -able'.

'Comfortable'. You skip that vowel sound.

'Comfortable'. You look very comfortable this afternoon.

'Almond'. Now in this word the 'L' is silent. It's not 'almond' or 'almond', it's 'al- -mond', 'almond', 'almond', 'almond'.
